Using AppLocker

The organizations of today face many challenges in controlling which applications run on client computers. These challenges include managing the following:

  • The Universal Windows Platform apps and desktop apps that users can access
  • Which users are allowed to install new applications
  • Which versions of the applications are allowed to run, and for which users

Unauthorized software can experience a higher incidence of malware infections and generate more helpdesk calls. However, it can be difficult for you to ensure that users' computers run only approved and licensed software.

You can use AppLocker to specify which software can run on a user's PC. AppLocker enables users to run the applications, installation programs, and scripts that they require to be productive while still providing the security and compliance benefits of application standardization.
